Maple Walnut Fudge

I got a new camera for Christmas! I took that picture! Isn't that just a kick in the pants?!

I'm not at all excited about this new turn of events =)

I made this fudge as a Christmas present for my Dad. His favorite ice cream is a maple walnut that he gets somewhere specific that I can't think of off the top of my head. So I figured some fudge (which he loves) of the same flavor would be a welcomed addition to the holiday sweets piled in the refrigerator. 

I think Dad really liked this. I thought it was great, but it definitely was over-shadowed by the penuche fudge that wouldn't stay out of my mind or my mouth. Pesky fudge... 

Oh! And Happy New Year! 2010...moving up in the world!
